‘Sash factor’ boosts chances of PH queens

Three of the reigning Binibining Pilipinas queens were given an exclusive send-off party at Novotel Manila-Araneta Center on Tuesday. Organized by Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. (BPCI), family, friends, media, sponsors and well-wishers were invited to show their love and support for the country’s representatives to the grandest beauty pageants in the world.

Scheduled to leave one after the other—starting off with 2017 Binibining Pilipinas Grand International Elizabeth Clenci, who flew to Vietnam on Thursday for her October 25 competition—the gathering proved to be an afternoon well spent for the queens who basked in the encouragement of their kababayan.
